Reception of Stanley Kubrick (Star of the City) Final Act: A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)

My eyes, buttered and wide open, have seen it all to the end.

This is a Steven Spielberg film. The sensibilities, feel, and philosophy is all Spielberg. But it also all Kubrick.

This is the final send-off from a futurist who envisioned a future. 2001: A Space Odyssey imagines a future of mechanical humanity from 1968 lens, A.I imagines a future of human mechanism from 2001 lens.

Stray thoughts and minor writings on SK11 – The Shining (1980) and SK13 – Eyes Wide Shut (1999)

Reality, distorted to hell and back (Kim Jihoon moment you say? Yes)

Stanley's String Theocracy goes into the human mind...The rainbow ends in overlooked minds. Fidelio

Slight NSFW warning for the Eyes Wide Shut section!

Reception of Stanley Kubrick (Star of the City) Act 5: Full Metal Jacket (1987)

People didn't lie, the first part is simply....chef's kiss....perfect. One thing I am beginning to notice about Stanley the Manley is that his comedic skills are pretty good. R. Lee Ermey and Vincent D'Onofrio out-Joker'd the hell out of Modine that it's funny to see 'Joker' being the cringe one in the beginning.

But the second part is where the film shines. It is a good piece of anti-war film. And with that, we say goodbye to our sweethearts....

Goodbye, my sweetheart...
